Description
Kingsley Hall, built around 1928, was designed by architect Charles Cowles-Voysey. The building features red brick with a blue brick ground floor and a rendered coved cornice. It has an irregular shape and facade, standing four storeys tall with a three-bay facade that includes a slightly recessed northern one-bay tower. The entrance consists of double doors flanked by narrow windows, all beneath a flat hood. Above this, there are three small windows below an iron balcony supported by corbels, which overlooks three large round-arched windows. The top floor has a band of smaller windows situated below the eaves. A plaque on the building notes that Mahatma Gandhi stayed here in 1931. The interior is notable for its vaulted ceilings above the windows and a stained glass window created by Belgian artist Eugene Yoors, dedicated to George Lansbury.
